Add clarification of how to set force_hostname 

The original instructions told the user to log into Discourse Admin settings in order to set the force_hostname parameter so that the email validation URLs would be correct.  However, it is not possible to log in until email is validated.   This commit adds instructions for setting force_hostname through the console.

In the [Heroku dashboard](https://dashboard.heroku.com/apps), select your app and you will see the separate processes that have been created for your application under Resources. You will only need to start the sidekiq process for your application to run properly. The clock process is covered by Heroku Scheduler, and you can even remove this from the Procfile before deploying if you so wish. The worker process has been generated as a Rails default and can be ignored. As you can see **the Sidekiq process costs $34 monthly** to run. If you want to reduce this cost, check out [Advanced Heroku deployment](#advanced-heroku-deployment).
